39 Weeks


Hot off the presses!  From just this morning...this happy dancing kid is suffering from bilateral ear infections.  Every time she gets sick, I say to the house that me and Hasan could learn a thing or two from her sunny disposition when she is sick.  I write this as I too am sick with a sore throat and cold...and let's just say I am not dancing.

38 Weeks



I don't know why I love this photo...maybe it was the moment it captured.  Us laughing happily, looking out the window and enjoying the kitty's antics.  But now that I look at it, I realize it also captures the fact that I had her shirt on backwards ALL DAY.  See how it looks like her neck is cut off...silly mommy!

37 Weeks




I love this picture of her.  Firstly, it captures what I get to enjoy every morning - time on carpet while I rush to get dressed (and she proceeds to pull off her socks, and anything else she can pull off when I'm not around to stop her)...and how fun it is to run in every so often to make sure she is OK, and just have her look at me with those big eyes.  But more so, this particular morning, how she was dressed made me feel close on both of our behalfs to Wendy and Tutu.  I call this outfit "channeling our inner Aunt Wendy and Tallulah".  Purple and stripes - that's what I think of when I think of those two :)

36 Weeks



Our niece Tanuja often likes to ask "what can Sanaa do now?".  I love that question.  Well this week she can take a spoon with some food on it and put it in her mouth.  Might be upside down, might have half the food land somewhere other than her mouth, but she's pretty clear that that food she likes to eat can come to her mouth if she moves an offered spoon quickly and straightaway to her mouth.

(PS - I like to call this picture her "gangster face".  She looks a little scary...)

35 Weeks - Happy Thanksgiving!


Sanaa is very blessed for having so much adoration from her cousins.  Jaheim loves to teach her new things...and he is so tolerant with her.  Here he is letting Sanaa pull his ears...HARD.  What are cousins for I guess...

October 2012





October flew by...I had most of the month off, but it was chock full of household illnesses, time that seem to go without notice, and so on...I can't remember much more about it other than it was my birthday, which was uneventful, and it ended with Hurricane Sandy coming the day I was supposed to start my new gig.  Hm...

Here are the pictures from the month...there just weren't that many strangely.
